Collaborations in the freeform bass world are the best way to both showcase the individual sound that we love from the artists we listen to but also create new and unique tracks that would have not have been possible without a team effort and multiple pairs of ears. Some of our favorite producers are doing just this, back at it again to bring forth an absolutely massive collab to bless us today. Star Monster, Dalfin and your favorite boy band, Xotix have teamed up to deliver “Wagmi”, a heater of an uptempo bass track that is sure to blow your mind. With its fast paced melodies, heavy bassline and insane tempo changes, this track pushes the boundaries of what we have seen from these artists previously. We know we’ll definitely have the track on full volume and know you will too! Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling the stomper of a tune,“Wagmi”, a certified bop.
“So we collabed on the track back in Santa Rosa at the studio/house of Xotix and Dalfin. We had just played a Whomp show together in Arcata. Was really fun to see Xotix go to work in their home environment and it seemed we all were brimming with ideas so the tune literally flowed out in one day.”
DIVING DEEP STAR MONSTER , XOTIX & DALFIN
1. What has been your favorite memory this far having been part of the EDM scene prior to successfully launching off as a reputable bass artist?
Star Monster:
My favorite memory was showing up to Burningman having not really ever heard Dubstep on a real system and riding Artcars and winding up in random camps for the next week dancing my ass off.
Xotix:
My favorite memory of being part of the scene before Xotix really started was Enchanted Forest 2018. It was my first festival, and my first time hearing bass music on a good system. I came home so inspired, and have been making this shit ever since.
Dalfin:
My favorite memory was probably going to this festival in Maine called Great North years ago and diving into the weirder side of bass music at the time. Seeing artists like Tipper, Freddy Todd and Sixis really inspired me with their wild sound design which pushed me to start producing.
2. What has been the biggest difference you’ve noticed when first starting off as an artist vs now after experience playing events , doing releases etc?
Star Monster:
Biggest difference is actually learning how things work in the music industry and being surrounded by artists who I used to look up to.
Xotix:
I think the biggest difference we’ve experienced growing as artists is really represented in who we talk to and surround ourselves with. The people we’re chatting and working with today were our idols like 2 years ago, so it’s been really amazing to kind of step into the shoes that we wished we were in a couple years ago
Dalfin;
The biggest difference I’d say is I keep my circle of people a lot smaller now. I surround myself with other artists or creatives for the most part and my free time instead of attending shows nonstop might be working on music with friends on a Friday instead.
